Bug Description

In Xfce on 22.04 Xubuntu, when trying to install .deb package with "Open With Gdebi packge Installer" right-click option while in Thunar file manager, Gdebi-gtk just silently dies, without installing package.

If gdebi-gtk is started from CLI, and then .deb file is opened via File>Open , then .deb package is able to be installed.

Gdebi=gtk should be able to install package with open with method and should not die.

Hey Nikola.
Does your Gdebi install package normally if you try to open the same .deb package for the second time right after first one? My Gdebi's behaviour is like this and I wonder if it is the same issue or not.
